THE PAST & THE PRESENT – ISHQBAAZ FF -EPISODE 31 – AN EVENTFUL DAY

Hello this is VHM back with an FF on IB…I will deal with all the three pairs of IB ….please ignore the grammatical and spelling mistakes….

Om ‘’shivaay why are you smiling’’
Rudra ‘’did they say the truth?’’
Shivaay ‘’it’s time to celebrate OmRu…Mahi and Shreya have decided to get married…….it was Mahi’s call to inform that Shreya has accepted his love and she confessed her feelings too…yesterday Shreya’s dadaji has asked Shreya to decide whether she is ready to marry Mahi or not and today the result is out……ok fine.. listen you both… Mahi want to surprise everyone in home so he hasn’t informed anyone about this………Shreya asked Mahi to keep it as secret from elders while she will inform AniGaMya…….so none of us is speaking about this in home……’’
OmRu nodded and hugged Shivaay……..
Rudra ‘’in dono ki gaadi kuch jyada hi tezi se patri par nahi aa gayi?’’
Shivaay ‘’chalo accha hain Mahi Buddha hone se pehle hi shadi kar raha hain’’
All three laughed and rushed towards Home……….

——————-Oberoi Mansion
Mr.Bajaj came along with Shreya and both were seated in the living room….As usual no one had any idea because Mahi has just informed his brothers and Shreya informed her co-sisters ……
AniGamYa were although smiling………
All the elders also came and greeted them………
Shreya went to touch the feet of elders as a mark of respect and everyone hugged her and blessed her…….she quickly joined Anika Gauri and Sumo and hugged………..
While rest all were looking at then confused……..
ShivOmRu entered……….
When everyone was present Mr.Bajaj spoke
Mr.Bajaj ‘’ I have come here for the same reason……..this is my granddaughter Shreya’’ he pointed towards Shreya who was standing with AniGaMya………
Everyone smiled …..
Pinky ‘’you are beautiful…very beautiful…kisi ki nazar na lage’’
Mr.Bajaj ‘’I am sorry for day before yesterday to go without informing my decision…actually I was happy to witness Mahi’s honesty and then I decided he is perfect…however being from dada ji of Shreya I wanted to let Shreya know about all this……so when I said Shreya all the matter …she finally made her decision’’
Everyone except IB Gang looked at her tensed………
Shreya smiled shyly …….

Mr.Bajaj ‘’her happiness might have answered your question…she is ready to get married to Mahi…so now I want to ask you all whether you accept the proposal of Mahi and Shreya’’
Shakthi looked at Tej… Pinky looked at Jhanvi ………..Tej and Jhanvi smiled and they both looked at Dadi……….
Dadi ‘’we liked the proposal day before yesterday and today when you yourself have come again why would we deny…it’s a YES from all of us’’
Mr.Bajaj stood up and greeted Dadi while Dadi also stood up and reciprocated………
AniGaMya brought Shreya to the center while ShivOmRu brought Mahi to the center …both were standing together while everyone clapped for them……..
Mr.Bajaj ‘’if you don’t mind can we do Roka tomorrow?’’
Dadi ‘’let Pinky decide as it’s her son’s wedding’’
Pinky smiled and said ‘’If you all have no objection then I want to consult Pandit ji fist’’
Mr.Bajaj ‘’Absolutely’’
Pinky then and there called pandit ji who informed them that next day is absolutely best for the Roka
Shivaay was tensed as he knew the next day was the last day of IIRO and he has to make arrangements for Roka ceremony while he has to get the truth out too…..
Everyone agreed…….
Pinky ‘’Mr.Bajaj I want the Roka ceremony to be held in Oberoi Mansion…’’
Mr.Bajaj ‘’but’’
Shakthi ‘’Mr.Bajaj let’s do this…let Roka happen in Oberoi Mansion…all wedding rituals will happen in Bajaj Villa’’
Mr.Bajaj ‘’okay…as you say’’
The IB gang left to poolside for their masti while all the elders sat down to discuss about wedding and rituals………….everyone teased MahiYa and they both took it sportively……Seeing the love between family…Shreya had tears in her eyes…….ShivOmRu went to her and pacified her …they promised her to keep her always smiling……..
Later on……..Mahi called Shivaay aside and handed over an envelope…Shivaay looked at him questioningly…
Mahi ‘’Shivaay I need a help’’
OmRu joined while Anika gauri and Sumo kept Shreya busy
Mahi ‘’this is the family pic of Shreya…….i want to make a copy of it first and enlarge it and make a big photo frame to hang it over in our room……..’’
ShivOmRu ‘’oooo…’’

Mahi ‘’you can tease me later…but can you please help me with this’’
Shivaay ‘’off course anything for you Mahi…I will get this job done’’
Shivaay slipped the photo in his coat …….
Rudra ‘’samjho kaam ho gaya’’
Om nodded his head in disagreement…………..
Finally IB gang left Mahiya alone and left from there…………..
Everyone were going towards the living room when Anika heard Sahil crying………..
Shivika OmRi RuMya rushed towards Sahil’s room……….
Anika hugged Sahil and asked ‘’Sahil what happened ? why are you crying? ‘’
Sahil ‘’Anika didi …Mom-Dad’s photo frame is broken ‘’
Anika turned towards the side where Sahil pointed his finger
Anika ‘’stop crying first…I will make it proper…don’t cry’’
Shivaay ‘’Sahil I promise…. by tomorrow you will get back the photo with a new photo frame…even Mahi has also given me some duty of the same sort…I will get both these done’’
Sahil ‘’thank you jiju’’
Everyone pampered Sahil and Shivaay took the photo from Anika’s hand and slipped into his coat…..
Everyone came towards Living room and Mr.Bajaj got up to take leave……
Shreya and Mahi came and Shreya bid bye to everyone promising to come to their home a day later……
Everyone headed back to their rooms after one more tiring yet a happy day……..
—————-Omkara’s room
Gauri ‘’I am so happy today……Mahi jiju is getting married….and Shreya is perfect’’
Om ‘’ so are you’’
Gauri ‘’what?’’
Om’’you are also perfect…’’ he smiled
Gauri ‘’aap bhi na kuch bhi bolthe hain’’ she smiled
Om ‘’not something I am saying correct…you are just perfect……..and I am glad everything is going fine ‘’
Om hugged her from back…….
Gauri ‘’I hope everything goes fine from now on’’
Om ‘’yes it will’’
Gauri ‘’Om can I request something’’
Om turned her towards him
Om ‘’why to request ..you can demand and or order……..tell me what do you want?’’
Gauri ‘’it’s been long time I have not met maa….i am feeling like meeting her…shall I go for a day and come back before Roka starts’’
Om ‘’no’’
Gauri was disheartened
Om ‘’you need not go…Maaji will come here…….it’s occasion too…so I will send driver to pick her up…’’
Gauri ‘’ really’’
Om ‘’yes…and I am sorry too’’
Gauri ‘’why?’’
Om ‘’amidst all the happenings I forgot to think that you have a mother and you are her only daughter and her responsibility is on both of us…I am really sorry for that’’
Gauri ‘’it’s okay Om…I have been speaking to her everyday but when Shreya cried today missing her family I too wanted to meet my mom’’
Om ‘’yes…you have your mom…Shreya knows who her parents are, how they look…….Sumo has her small cute family… but Anika Bhabhi…..Anika Bhabhi has no one and she doesn’t even know about all this’’
Gauri ‘’she has everyone’’
Om looked shocked
Gauri ‘’my mom , Sumo’s family and all our family are her family also Sahil’s parents are her parents and latest joinee is Khanna bhayya’’ she smiled
Om hugged her and said ‘’you are right and we will ensure she never misses her family’’
Gauri reciprocated the hug……….

After sometime Om asked the driver to bring gauri’s mom to Oberoi mansion……..

—————–SHIVAAY’S ROOM

Anika was happily smiling with the turn of events in Mahi’s life……
Shivaay went near her and knelt down………
Shivaay ‘’Anika how many more days will you be angry on me…atleast tell me the number of days so that I will know how long I have to wait’’
Anika turned to go
Shivaay held her hand and said ‘’not today Anika…you cannot go without answering me’’
Anika turned towards him with red eyes ……she looked at him
Shivaay ‘’Anika , a person who commits crime is also given a chance to rectify his deeds …but here you are punishing me without giving a chance to correct myself…I am making every attempt to seek your forgiveness …but you are not ready to budge…why?’’
Anika ‘’I need not answer you Shivaay…remember what you said yesterday…you said we will stay away from each other when we are in this room’’
Shivaay left her hand in anger turned other side and tried to shout but he calmed himself
Shivaay ‘’before you leave……… tell me atleast a way to convince you that, I did not scream on you deliberately’’
Anika ‘’I have known you so no need to convince’’
Shivaay ‘’really Anika you have known me? But I am sorry this time you are wrong…you have not known me…not even a bit’’
Anika ‘’fine understand what you want to understand…as you did few days before’’
Shivaay ‘’why can’t you understand that it was not intentional’’
Anika ‘’why should I? it was you who said every-other thing to me…you wanted to not talk to me and stay away from me’’
Shivaay ‘’if …you are forgetting the if condition’’
Anika looked on , shivaay continued
Shivaay ‘’ yes I said so …I said I will give you same fate as I had given to my mom IF Mahi falls in danger…..but that did not happen and so there was no need to’’
Anika ‘’exactly if that had happened then’’
Shivaay ‘’for God sake Anika why are you trying to assume things that have not occurred……what do you want me to do…I tried every damn thing…I apologised day and night…I tried to make you happy…I tried to pamper you…I tried to make you jealous…I tried to do everything but I failed……today when my entire family is happy I am missing that happiness…because I am missing our togetherness…..your smile, you happiness which makes me happy is missing….’’ He choked…
Anika was just listening while having tears in her eyes …….while Shivaay was also teary eyed……..
Shivaay gave up after having no response from Anika………
Anika turned to go when Shivaay again held her hand
Shivaay ‘’Anika I have some last thing to say and I hope you will listen ……I know I am physically and mentally strong …but for my dear ones my heart is weak……I can bear anything if it’s only about me…but if it is about my family I cannot bear…family includes you and Sahil too…..on that day when I got to know about Mahi..i know my state…I knew my heart rate was sinking and out of that tensed situation I screamed at you…just tell me onething if in Mahi’s place was Sahil and I was in your place how would you react? Ok fine forget it……can you ever imagine I will leave you or stay away from you without talking….don’t you trust me on this…..if you don’t trust on this let me tell you Anika…it’s not possible for me Anika…it’s not at all possible………because if that happens then this SHIVAAY SINGH OBEROI WILL BE NO MORE……Without Anika SSO IS DEAD….HE IS DEAD FOREVER’’
Anika felt something is slipping from her hands with every sentence Shivaay was speaking…and it reached peaks when he spoke last three sentences…..
Anika ‘’enough Shivaay ……don’t you dare to say it once again..what do you think I will leave you so easily…you have to bear me for many more lives…so don’t you dare to speak of death….’’
Anika was crying saying those lines……….Shivaay looked at her in surprise while tears were ready to make their way out ……..
Anika ‘’I am sorry Shivaay…I punished you so much…I am really sorry………but fact is even I cannot stay away from you….i don’t know why I behaved so adamant….i have hurt you so much Shivaay…but in all these I forgot I was making you lose…I am sorry shivaay’’ she spoke holding her ears….
Shivaay smiled with tearful eyes and opened his hands …she quickly came to him and hugged him…..
Shivaay ‘’ssshhh don’t cry…no…no more tears ……’’ Anika was choking while crying …….
Shivaay ‘’I am sorry Anika..i shouldn’t have spoken all that to you…I should have trusted you , your intention….i am really sorry’’
Anika nodded her head in negation…while he wiped her valleys of tears and took her head on his chest, brushing her hair.…after sometime Anika calmed down and spoke
Anika ‘’no more sorries Shivaay…let’s forget it…I can bear anything but not these sort of words by you..you can fight with me…….. not talk to me…….. stay away from me……..but never ever speak to me like this…I just cannot bear this state of you..i can’t live without you’’
She sat and looked into his eyes…Shivaay too looked into her eyes and spoke
Shivaay ‘’but this is the truth Anika…I cannot live without you…it’s equal to Dea’’
Anika cupped his mouth with hers not letting him complete the word……..
Shivaay reciprocated the liplock with intensity…they were locking lips as if it was their first time…..it was intense and hard……..
Later they parted for breath and Shivaay hugged her……..Anika too hugged him and after a long time they slept peacefully cuddling each other………

———Day ended
Next day went off quickly as it was the last day of IIRO… everyone was busy in winding up the session as early as possible …and as planned it ended………
Soon after IIRO Shivaay personally went to the Showroom to make the Family pic of Shreya enlarged and bought a new photo frame for Sahil’s parents pic……
Shivaay asked to gift wrap both the photo frames…….and send it to Oberoi Mansion and hand them over to Security…….
Later OmRu joined Shivaay and they all left to Old House…….

—————-OLD HOUSE
Shivaay ‘’So have you decided to let us know the truth ?’’
Lady 1 ‘’no…we are ready to bear the punishment …call police and hand us over to them’’
Om ‘’what if we offer you huge amount in return’’
Lady 2 ‘’we don’t believe you ?’’
Rudra threw a blank cheque and ‘’ write as much amount as you want…we will sign it once you speak the truth and leave you’’
Lady 1 ‘’half of Oberoi Empire’’
Shivaay ‘’what? Are you in your senses?’’
Lady 2 ‘’yes…this truth is related to your wife… so half Oberoi empire is not a big deal’’
Shivaay ‘’go hell with your deal…I tried to give you your freedom and some good amount…but I think you don’t deserve this…….fine stay here in hunger and thirst …we will find the truth in other way’’
Lady 2 smiled ‘’no one except me and my husband knows this’’
Shivaay stood up in surprise and smiled
Shivaay ‘’thank you…now I will definitely get the truth’’ saying that he left…………
Lady 1 TO Lady 2 ‘’have you gone mad …now they will search your husband and get to know the truth …you have made our plan failed by slipping your tongue’’
Lady 2 got disappointed and later smiled
Lady 2 ‘’they will not find my husband ..because they don’t know where he stays…’’
Lady 1 ‘’but where is he now’’
Lady 2 ‘’there from where I come from’’
After ShivOmRu came out………….
Shivaay ‘’Khanna evening is Mahi’s roka…so as a brother to Anika , Gauri and Sumo come home for the party…come as their brother not as my security officer …understand’’
Khanna smiled and said ‘’thank you sir’’
Shivaay ‘’and for God sake in the party don’t call me sir…call me Shivaay’’
Khanna ‘’that’s not possible sir as I am accustomed to calling you Shivaay sir’’
Shivaay ‘’ that’s not my problem’’
ShivOmRu smiled and left…………
Om ‘’what now….’’
Shivaay ‘’finding her husband……’’
Om ‘’how’’
Shivaay look there?
Om ‘’Chopper why now?’’
Shivaay ‘’ we are going to Bareilly’’
Om ‘’what ?’’
Shivaay ‘’I have heard both of them speaking assuming we have left’’
Om ‘’But Shivaay you are needed here…evening is Mahi’s roka…so you are staying back and so will Rudra , I alone will go there and get him’’
Shivaay ‘’no way’’

Om ‘’yes Shivaay…for once listen to me’’
Rudra ‘’yes..O is right…Shivaay we need to help mahi too’’
Shivaay was in thoughts……….
Om ‘’great..had I known earlier we would have picked maaji personally on our way back’’
Rudra ‘’what maaji is coming?’’
Om ‘’yes…Guari was missing her so I asked our driver to go and bring her’’
Rudra’’but why driver…you could have booked flight’’
Om ‘’Rudra I booked flight ..driver will be carefully bringing her here’’
Rudra ‘’ohh ok then’’
Shivaay ‘’Rudra call Khanna to join Om’’
Rudra informed Khanna…Khanna asked his men to keep watch on two ladies………
Om and Khanna started to Bareily……….
